I have several duplicate files on my computer, is there an easy way to delete the duplicate files, and is there anything I need to be cautious about when doing it?I would assume I should keep the most recent file.

Deleting duplicates can be hazardous because most programmes which find duplicates show both in the same list

If they do not take up a lot of room on the drive, leave them, or use a cleaner which has a back up option
